[R.O. 2011 §85.010]
The term "financial institution", as used herein,
shall mean a "banking institution" as defined by Section 148.020(1),
RSMo., or a "credit institution" as defined by Section 148.130(2),
RSMo.
[R.O. 2011 §85.020]
Because the State of Missouri imposes an annual tax upon all
banking institutions and credit institutions, yet allows a credit
against this State tax for municipal taxes, it is to the advantage
of this City to impose a municipal tax upon such financial institution
equal to the maximum credit.
